Dear colleagues,
The SPE Arctic and Extreme Environments Conference and Exhibition will take place in Moscow on 18-20 October 2011.
The decision by SPE to conduct such an event in Russia has solid foundations. Russia has enormous hydrocarbon resources associated with extreme environments and harsh climatic conditions, in coastal Arctic areas and shelves of the northern seas. The Russian arctic shelf amounts to the equivalent of 100 billion tonnes of oil and its exploitation will continue as long as is required by Russia and the international community.
However, the development of these enormous resources is associated with colossal technical and technological
challenges that require solutions to a number of new problems including the development of new and efficient technologies, ways of minimising a negative impact on the environment and the ecosystem as a whole, maximising an industrial safety system and enhancing education systems and professional training and its quality. Finally, hard work from society as a whole, researchers and specialists of the oil and gas industry is required in order to enable participation of local people as active stakeholders to create solutions to all of these problems.
We are very pleased to invite you to participate in this event. We expect industry leaders from around the world and representatives from service companies, international R&D institutions and universities will come to Moscow in order to share their experience with us and to discuss the most important issues that are faced by the Russian and international petroleum industry and science.
This Arctic and Extreme Environments event represents a superb opportunity to showcase the latest technology and debate technical issues across key elements of arctic and extreme environment operations.
